About Bitcount Single Font

Bitcount is perfect for creating layered typographic effects using different colors and font styles. A slight shift in position creates shadows, highlights, and 3D effects.

Bitcount Introduction Bitcount is a family of styles, where the core shape of letters has been reduced to the minimal number of pixels possible. We need at least 5 vertical pixels of x-height to draw “a” and “e”. Adding the minimum of 1 pixel as ascender and 1 pixel as descender, the minimum grid is 5 pixels wide and 7 pixel high. Here the Bitcount Single Regular is shown. The large number of styles in the Bitcount family come from the virtually infinite amount of variations that are possible, even with this small amount of 35+ pixels. The styles vary in articulation of accent shapes, one or two pixel stems, roman or slanted, normal or condensed. And all of this with a range of pixels shapes, such as large/small circles and large/small squares. Here showing respectively Bitcount Single Regular Circle, Bitcount Double Regular Circle and Bitcount Single Regular Square. In order to find the best selection of styles for a specific task, this “manual” is available, illustrated with a large number of examples. And even Python/DrawBot programs are available for users who want to div
